Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida
My Dad's Will
My Dad passed away in Fort Lauderdale approx. 4 years ago. I was never contacted about the reading or contents of the will. How would I find out if I was entitltled to any of the assets? How do I find out who the attorney was who handled the will? It is a mystery to me that my dad who I had a wonderful relationship with would leave me without any family property or memorabilia. He has a surviving spouse who is in a California retirement center with Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, I cannot get any info out of her that is reliable.
